Cask @ Fighting Cocks, Oakengates. Pours a clear deep ruby, frothy white head atop. Appealing fruity malty nose. Alluring smooth palate with a balanced clean malty character, with mild fruity moments. Good.

Handpull cask at the Ale Wagon, Leicester. Dark brown, a little bit translucent with a ring of tan head. Light smoke notes in the aroma, plummy esters and some bitter chocolate. Taste is fairly bitter straight on, with plum smoke and liquorice notes leading to a balanced finish. Soft carbonation. A nice beer.

[Cask at the Bell, Waltham St Lawrence.] An attractive bright amber pour with a ring of white head; aroma of sour grains; quite full bodied with a sour grainy taste and some yeast; then a dry finish with a light bitterness. Perhaps more a Blonde Ale than a bitter.
